Quick travel: I am bound by the longevity system

Lin Jiu didn't know yet, but just because Qi Mingjing smiled at her, Qi Xiuwu was already thinking about their marriage. At this time, she was thinking about how to achieve greater benefits.

In fact, for time-travelers like Lin Jiu, whether they are Khitans, Jurchens or Dangxiang people, they are all descendants of Yan and Huang.

She didn't want to start a war with them, but she couldn't stand the lack of education of these ethnic groups. They slaughtered the city at every turn. Some of the extremely cruel ones even fed on human flesh. They divided people into three, six or nine grades, and buried them with others at every turn. , if they really were allowed to rule the Central Plains, it would be a disaster for Chinese civilization.

The negotiating envoy of the Liao Kingdom was Xiao Yuandao, the uncle of the Liao Kingdom and Ye Luxiong's father-in-law. Yeluxiong's first wife is Xiao Yuandao's youngest daughter. Ever since Yeluxiong was captured, Xiao Yuandao has been thinking about rescuing Yeluxiong, but his people visited the Qi army camp several times and failed to find Qi Yuandao. Xiuwen imprisoned Yelu Xiong somewhere, but asked Qi Xiuwen to find many spies he had buried in Zhending Mansion. Later, something happened to Yelu Chu, and the Liao Kingdom agreed to negotiate with Qi Xiuwen and let Ye Luxiong go.

"General Qi, I want to see our third prince before negotiating." Xiao Yuandao knew that the Han people were cunning, and he would not negotiate with them before meeting his son-in-law.

"Of course, this is a business, and the goods must be inspected." Qi Xiuwu stood on the negotiating table and waved, and Qi Mingsheng and Lin Yu brought up Ye Luxiong, who had restored his original appearance.

"Ago."

"Father-in-law."

"Uncle Xiao Guo, now that we have met, we can sit down and talk!" Qi Xiuwu said with a faint smile. At this time, Xiao Yuandao was the God of Wealth in his eyes.

"What do you want?" Xiao Yuandao sat down at the negotiation table after confirming that Ye Luxiong was not a fake person.

"The Liao Kingdom returned the sixteen states of Yanyun. In addition, as financial compensation, the Liao Kingdom needed to pay Qi Jiajun a one-time payment of 3,000 mares, 2,000 male horses, 1,000 cattle and sheep each for less than five years and more than two years, and gold Five thousand taels.”

Qi Xiuwu directly stated his offer.

"Your request is too high. We cannot agree to this," Xiao Yuandao said with a stern face.

"We will return the three cities of Yingzhou, Zhuozhou and Mozhou to you at most. In addition, we can only give you two thousand horses, ten thousand taels of gold, and five hundred cattle and sheep."

Lin Jiu sneered, "Qi Xiuwu, didn't you say that Ye Luxiong is valuable? Now it seems that he is not that good? Since he is not valuable, then return him to my aunt. It just so happens that my aunt's village still lacks a sky lantern."

"Uncle Xiao Guo, even though you are asking for a high price and making a counter-offer on the spot, your price is too dishonest. It seems that you don't want to redeem your son-in-law." Qi Mingjing said to the side, "That's right, you Khitan people are very particular about brotherhood. If Yeluxiong dies, and you marry your daughter to the next khan, you will still be the uncle of the Liao Kingdom."

"In addition to Youzhou, Jizhou, Shunzhou and Tanzhou, there are seven states in total. In addition, I will give you three thousand fine horses, five hundred mares under five years old, five thousand cattle and sheep, and ten thousand taels of gold. If you can accept it, we can exchange it in three days. If you can't accept it, just kill him!" Xiao Yuandao closed his eyes and showed his bottom line.

If he could, he didn't want to have peace talks with Qi Jun. As Qi Mingjing said, he was just a son-in-law, and his death would really not cost him much.

But now only Yelu Xiong and Yelu Hong are left in the entire Daliao royal family, but it turns out that Yelu was born to a Han woman and has impure blood. Not only that, even the fire in the palace vaguely pointed to Yelu Hong.

If Yeluhong was just cruel, Xiao Yuandao could still tolerate him, but he should never cooperate with Wanyanda.

From the moment Xiao Yuandao knew that Yeluhong was colluding with Wanyanda, Xiao Yuandao kicked Yeluhong out of the succession.

Qi Xiuwu also knew that it was impossible for the other party to completely cede Yanyun's sixteen states, but the other party's ability to cede seven states was in line with their expectations.

"Okay, in the next three days, your people will withdraw from the seven states, and we will send soldiers to garrison them." Qi Xiuwu said with a smile, "As for the third prince, after your people withdraw from the seven states, we will naturally take you back."

…………

"Pa." Lin Jiu whipped an assassin away.

"Go back and tell Xiao Yuandao that if he is not sincere, my aunt will not mind getting to know him now, and you will lose both your life and money."

Although Xiao Yuandao agreed to pay the ransom, he still wanted to rescue the person so that they could break the contract. Several waves of assassins came throughout the day, and all of them were beaten to death by Lin Jiu and thrown out.

"Ninth Lady, don't be angry. If this assassin comes again, I will cut off one of Ye Luxiong's arms and give it to Xiao Yuandao." Qi Mingjing walked in with a food box.

"Why are you here? Qi Jiajun must be very busy these two days, right?"

"What about Fourth Brother and the others? Besides, I'm still young now, and it's not my turn to do important things like defending the city." Qi Mingjing raised the food box, "I heard that eating delicious food can make people feel better. Do you want to try some?"

Lin Jiu glanced at Qi Mingjing and said, "Who told you that I was in a bad mood."

"It's because I'm in a bad mood." Qi Mingjing smiled and approached Lin Jiu, "So I'd like to ask Lady Nine to have some food with me."

"Qi Mingjing, you are getting thicker and thicker." Lin Jiu looked at the food box, which contained two plates of peach slice cake, "Did you make it yourself?"

"See if it tastes good."

"It's the taste in memory." Lin Jiu nodded.

Three days later, the Liao army withdrew from the seven states of Yan, and Qi Xiuwen sent several of his sons and cronies to lead troops to garrison. At the same time, Qi Xiuwen sent good news to the capital and wrote to the imperial court to send officials to take over the government affairs of the seven states of Yan.

Bianliang

"Good news from Zhending Mansion, the Qi family's army defeated the Liao Kingdom and recovered the seven states of Yan..."

Two cavalry messengers quickly shuttled through the streets of Bianliang with flags in hand. When the people on the street heard clearly what the messengers were shouting, all the people suddenly cheered.

Many people also bought firecrackers to celebrate.

Above the court, Chai Ji was overjoyed at first when he saw Qi Xiuwen's good news, but when he saw Qi Xiuwen later asking for money and food to expand his armaments, Chai Ji's face sank again.

"My dear friends, you have all read the information about General Qi! General Qi has made great contributions to the Zhou Dynasty and deserves a heavy reward, and General Qi's requirements should also be met. But now the national treasury is empty, and I really don't know how to reward you. Are you good friends? suggestions.”

"The officials can make General Qi the Grand Marshal of the Army. I heard that Qi Xiuwu and Qi Xiuwen's youngest son is still unmarried. The officials can give them a marriage as a show of favor. Now that the national treasury is empty, the officials can make the real government official Forty percent of the people and land in the seven states of Yan were assigned to military households, and the army was supported by military households in various places."
